31、g that gene technology can do is to cure serious diseases that doctors at present can almost do nothing with, such as cancer and heart disease.

32、ogy is applied, not only these two diseases can be cured completely, bringing happiness and more living days to the patients, but also the great amount of money people spend on curing their diseases can be saved, therefore it benefits the economy as well.
